MANUAL ADDENDUM

NAMING FILES

Although the RE32 has an auto-naming function for naming recordings, projects, etc., sometimes

it is necessary to name files yourself. Typically, you will want to name projects, libraries and clips

and you may also wish to name edits prior to copying them into the clipboard.

Naming is most easily done from a PS/2 ASCII keyboard connected to the RE32. The computer

keyboard is connected to the KEYBOARD input on the rear of the RE32.

When the cursor is placed on a filename and a key is pressed on the PS/2 keyboard, the selected

file will be highlighted as shown below ready for editing:

The first character of the name will be highlighted and you may type in a name of up to ten

characters.

If you don’t have a PS/2 keyboard connected, you can also enter names from the RE32’s panel.

When the cursor is placed on a filename and the ENT key on the numeric keyboard is pressed, the

selected file will be highlighted as shown above ready for editing.

To select characters for the new name, use the DATA +/- keys to cycle though each of the

alphanumeric characters available.

To move the cursor to other characters in the name, use the CURSOR keys to move left or

right to a new position in the text.

As the LCD prompts you, you must press EXECUTE to complete the naming process. If you

change your mind, press EXIT at any time. Pressing EXIT will leave the naming process and

revert to the original name.

NOTE: The following characters are not available when using a PS/2 keyboard:

£ $ ^ & { } [ ] @ | ~ ‘ + -

The following keys also have no function:
